Ferreira, 1970

Vintage Port

Description and Reviews:
The 1970 Ferreira is a clean ruby garnet colour. On the nose there is a touch of teak and an undertone of cardamon spice. There is still decent amount of red fruit. On the palate there is a little spirit that adds some heat after 4 hours this faded a little. The wine is full-bodied, solid but lacking the structure and backbone to project it into an outstanding category. Good long finish. Will hold for many years. 90/100 TC VWP tasting Dec 2020.
